Discord had finally stopped crying. He knew that now he had to find a way to make himself less chaotic. How to do so? Practice ordering things. Discord began carving out a straight line with one claw. He began sorting rock from largest to smallest. However, this was quite boring. Especially to Discord. It wasn't working. I'm sorry, Fluttershy. he thought, tears dripping down his face. I just don't know what to do. Then he realized that his memory of Fluttershy was keeping him from being chaotic when he was about to let loose! He had a new idea of how to help himself: remembering Fluttershy. He began carving Fluttershy's name into the rocks around him, over and over again.
----------One Month Later----------
Discord had just finished writing Fluttershy's name 31,415,926 times when a letter appeared in front of him, sent by dragon fire. He opened it and read it aloud.
"Hello Discord, this is Princess Twilight Sparkle. We have finished preparations for Fluttershy's funeral. Come now if you're ready. No news on new Element Bearers yet.
Your Friend? Princess Twilight Sparkle"
Discord sighed, snapping his fingers and teleporting away. In an instant he appeared in the castle's throne room, where Twilight was waiting. She walked him out to the funeral, which only Fluttershy's real friends were attending. No prissy, stuck-up nobles or those who wanted to get closer to Twilight were there, it was just a quiet sob between friends.
"Fluttershy was my first friend in Cloudsdale." Rainbow Dash sobbed. "I stood up for her during our school years, protecting her whenever anypony tried to bully her. I only wish I could have been there to protect her when she needed it most."
Discord flinched. Rainbow Dash's words reminded him that if he had been more careful, he might have been able to save Fluttershy.
"I loved spending time with Fluttershy. Our trips to the spa were simply divine. She was so helpful, some of the designs for my best dresses were ideas she came up with. If she wasn't so shy, she could have even become a supermodel!" Rarity cried softly. "I wish I could have had just one more trip to the spa with her."
"I'm not a pony of many words." Big Macintosh rumbled. "So I'll be short. I was planning on asking her out on a date not a month before... Well, we all know what happened." he glanced at Discord, and Discord winced. "I should have asked her sooner."
"There aren't the words to describe how I feel." Applejack said simply, holding her hat over her chest with her eyes closed. "I miss Fluttershy. She may have been shy around most ponies, but around her friends, she was the sweetest thing!"
Pinkie Pie looked unusually deflated. "Death is the only thing that's not fixed by a party. Fun has no place in Funeral, I don't know what the ponies who created the word were thinking. Funerals are meant to remind ponies that life is all too short sometimes, and we should have fun while we still can."
"I don't feel that a pre-written speech is appropriate at this time, and I can't improvise very well. I just want to say, I miss Fluttershy. She was one of my first friends." Twilight said, pulling her friends into a hug.
Discord sad there for a while, even after everypony else left. This was directly his fault. With a sigh, he teleported back to the moon. This time he began carving Fluttershy's face into the rocks. I will never forget. he promised himself silently.
