//------------------------------// // Half way through the party. (Revised) // Story: Drifted Thoughts // by Animeyaoi //------------------------------// Walking with Apple Bloom in an akward silence is giving me a lot of time to think. Before I can even do something to that extent out of the corner of my eye I can see the Cmc walking to us. Wait... did they over hear us? I mean they weren't that far. Oh no, no, no, this is bad. Apple Bloom had finally closed her mouth as we stopped and looked at each other, I can hear an odd noise, they're trying to catch our attention. We both looked up still in shock at what happened, walking and scared. What do I do. No one to comfort me, do I just run away or ignore what happened. I need to do something and fast. I don't want to know what they have to say. I was so harsh. I need to hurry and look at the ground maybe they won't notice me... wait, there not dinosaurs. I fell so ashamed, what if they hate me now? "So you told off Diamond Tiara?" Being stared down by the orange pegasus I couldn't take it anymore. In one instant I made up my mind. Smiling I look up at the short haired Cmc, as I chuckle the rest join in. I can't believe myself, am I stupid? No, I should be proud. D.T and Silver had done much more horrid things and I said I'd be there friend in the future anyway. "That was totally amazing! Did Silver look hurt though? I mean I know Diamond certainly was. " Sweetie Belle looks a little bit worried, I put my hoof on her shoulder, she seems to have calmed down slightly. I look at her and nod my head no, to lessen her worries. "I'm surprised you could do that. You know they're bullies. They LOVE to pick on us cause were blank flanks. I want my cutie mark now but it's been talking us time." Distraught and a bit upset each of them hold out there flanks a little, and look at them. I turn my head to my own, then again looking to them they look at the floor saddened due to the fact it was taking long. "Yeah Apple Bloom's right. You did a good job there." Looking a bit more cheerful we laugh and smile. "Wow thanks! I mean I said the truth. I'm good with my thoughts." I'm gonna help them get there Cutie Marks soon. A little push, I'll ask Twilight if that's okay. The crusaders and me began having a nice time enjoying the party, after the little incident. A quick blinding flash is what caught my attention. Two of them, so quick as if they were bullets. I turn to look right and a grey blur moves quickly, a smaller flash of light and it was gone as quickly as it came. Looking on to my left, I almost jump out of my skin. Close to my face is a light fuschia pony with violet swirling eyes. I look behind her and see Fluttershy with Discord. Discord with his arm around her. I walked up to them, ready with a few questions. The Cmc smile as I walk to them, giggling a little, they turn to leave. Looking for Spike as I had wished to do soon. "So your the Human Pony I've heard about! Nice to meet you. This is my beautiful Fluttershy, and my adorable daughter Screwball." He roughly shook my hand. Then points at the two ponies. I definitely have a look of surprise. He smiled as he saw it, I then put the pieces together. "Oh I know everything my dear Fluttershy told me everything and I promise not to tell." He made vivid claw and hoof motions. When he promised he did the Pinkie Promise hoof shake, I laughed worriely. "Ok thank you?. I'm surprised that you and Fluttershy are together though. Although may I ask about Screwball?" Trying to be true and not hurtful. Screwball! Finally real information about this background pony. "Oh me and Discord may have had a few falling outs, but he's just so nice and adorable. He tries his hardest to be his best, and has improved greatly. I don't even mind Topsy Turvy she's a kind and we'll mannered step daughter. I hope when and if me and Discord have a child it's this well mannered." Looking kind she looks up at her special somepony, caring eyes. She has deep emotions for him. "Thank you dear, couldn't have said it better myself. As for little Screwball, she was made. With caos magic and a little boredom. I took a small stroll one day through a wonderfully wild forest, and ended up conjuring her. She is quite amazing." Laughing almost evilly, he slyly pats his said daughter on the head. "Fluttershy is a nice step mother. She's really great, so helpful and kind. She calls me by my real name rather then my nickname, and I only let special ponies do that. Discords a good daddy too, he does whatever he can to do his best and improve me too. He and Step- Mother care for one another a lot." I smiled Screwball may be slow at moments but after a while she seems to process things much better. She also sounds proper, that's the nicest surprise so far. "Well Fluttershy, I hope he remains such a gentlemen. It's nice to meet the two of you, see you around." I smile and trot away. Looking at beautiful decorations, and for Spike, a passing Screwball runs past me in a bit of a rush. Only left with a flowing sorry. It seems she is looking for somepony. As I walk again a pretty pink pony trots past with a hurried look on her mussel and a small gust of wind as her excuse. Is she looking for somepony too? I move up wards on a nice little balcony made of almost transparent lavender crystal. I watch as Diamond looks for her lost treasure. I mean it has to be some type of important treasure, why else would she do so much to find it. An suddenly an very odd pairing catches my sight. A laughing and hugging Silver Spoon and Sweetie Belle. Sweetie Belle giving her adorable smile and Silver with a real sincere one. I saw as Diamond quickly found her lost treasure. It's name Screwball, and or Topsy Turvy. It was adorable because I knew what it ment. Two adorable couples. What else could I ask for from this wonderful party..
