Discord's Choice

Request from the Princess

Fluttershy flew around her cottage, humming a beautiful tune whilst she fed her animals. "So uh Fluttershy what did you need me for?" a voice from below asked.

"Twilight! I-I forgot you were here," Fluttershy said shyly as she landed infront of the purple alicorn. She grabbed a small pink letter from under her wing. The purple alicorn levitated the letter closer to herself.

"Another letter to Discord I presume?" Twilight said, smiling at her friend.

Fluttershy blushed as she hid her face behind her mane and gave a shy smile. "I-If you don't mind," she stammered, rubbing her hoof slowly.

Twilight saw this and raised an eyebrow at her. She always helped send letters to Discord but with each request, it has become more and more, frequent. Then, a reason popped into her head. SHE HAS A CRUSH ON DISCORD! She gasped at that idea. Fluttershy looked at her with concern. Twilight wanted to slap herself countless of times from how ridiculous that idea was. Of course she doesn't have a crush on him. What kind of pony would like such a monster...but...Fluttershy likes animals and well Discord is well,made of different types of animals...but.... Twilight began to debate with herself.

"I-Is something wrong?" Fluttershy stared

Twilight shook her head and smiled at her friend warmly. Fluttershy smiled back. "No no yes I'm good" Twilight replaid to her friend.

"SPIKE!...um..." Spike's head poked out from Fluttershy's door with a mouthful of green mush. "yesh philit?" Spike said, a few lumps of green mush dropped from his mouth.

"SPIKE!" Fluttershy and Twilight shouted in unison. "Your not supposed to eat that! That's medicine for the sick animals! Spit that out now!" Fluttershy shouted as she ran to aid Spike with the medicine he ate. Twilight stared at the letter and bit her lower lip. She looked at her timid friend. "I'm sorry Fluttershy" Twilight sighed under her breath and with a blast of purple light, the letter was gone, leaving a few sparkles which faded as they fell. Fluttershy and Spike looked over.

"Wheres the letter Twilight?" Fluttershy said with a little panicky tone in her voice.

"I decided to send it myself" Twilight answered

"Uh why?" Fluttershy asked, alot more calmer.

Angel poked his head out of Fluttershy's mane, yawning. He looked at Spike and Twilight angrily as he neatened his snow white coat.

Twilight's iris shrunk as she stiffened from the question. How did i not think of that?! she yelled in her head "Uh...um...well...cause uh...S-Spike ate all that medicine and...uh...I'm afraid it might mess up the delivery...hehe" Twilight stammered with a timid chuckle at the end. As Twilight ended her sentence, Spike started to clench his stomach and gagged over and over again. Twilight placed her hoof over Spike's shoulder. "See, now his getting si- ouch!" Twilight tried to continued but was interrupted by Spike's fiery breath and a letter thrown into her face.

Spike picked up the letter and began to read it out loud.

Dear Fluttershy,
Element of Kindness

You are requested to meet Prince Strife, my cousin from the Gala and Princess Luna at the Canterlot Train station now. Prince Strife will be staying at your place as me and my sister have important tasks ahead and will not have time to entertain him. I am sorry for this inconvenience.

Yours faithfully
Princess Celestia

Twilight, Fluttershy and Spike shared the same look. "Wait did she say right now?" Twilight asked.

Spike looked at the letter and nodded. Twilight panicked and grabbed Spike and Fluttershy by the arm as she flapped her wings and headed for Canterlot.

"Wait...Twilight! What just happened?" Fluttershy asked as she was dragged to the skies. Angel shrugged as he grabbed a few strands of Fluttershy's mane and wrapped it around his waist.


Princess Luna tapped her hoof against the floor. Where is he? Luna asked herself. Luna turned to walk to Discord's room but was stopped by a unicorn with a light grey coat and a black mane which parted against his horn. He had lavender eyes which looked down at Luna with a warm embrace. He had two blue music notes as a cutie mark."Arpeggio?! Fancy meeting you here. I thought you went to spend the week with your family at Manehatten?" Luna asked as she took a step back and brushed his coat where she bumped into him.

Arpeggio stopped Luna and groomed his own coat "Ah yes well, my family decided to meet me here when i told them i had a performance in canterlot this weekend. You are coming to my performance right? Your highness," He asked as he bowed infront of her.

"Arggi please...you know I don't like it when you call me that. And bow too, a-and yes I will be attending your performance " Luna said, blushing. Arpeggio stood back up and rubbed with Luna's mane. "I'll see you there then," The unicorn said before leaning forward and kissing the forehead of the blue alicorn before leaving with a warm smile. Luna's face began to glow pink.The unicorn waved goodbye as he walked off.

Just as Luna waved back, she could hear a large outburst of laughter coming from behind, when she turned, she saw an alicorn laying on the floor clenching his stomach, "Arggi-ahahahaha-wh-what-ahahahaahahaha" . Luna's face started to change from pink to red as she stomped toward the alicorn. She lifted a broom which was nearby and whacked the alicorn in the head, hard.

"SHUT UP!" Luna's scream echoed through the entire castle

THUMP

OOOOOWWWWWW!!!!
