Angel of Music

"Hey Flutters, can I talk to you?"

Rainbow dash said to Fluttershy. Fluttershy nodded and started to walk over to her friend with Discord following close behind.

"Alone."

Rainbow said in a annoyed tone, looking at Discord.

"Then where am I supposed to go?"

Discord said crossing his arms. Fluttershy turned to Discord and gave him a sweet smile.

"You can go back to my home. I'll be there is a few minutes."

Discord looked down at Fluttershy with a warm smile and with a snap of his figures he was gone.

"Um...How dose he know where you live?"

Fluttershy looked at her friends and the princesses and shrugged.

"It was my mother's old home."

They all nodded in agreement.

"Well we most be off. It'll be a busy day tomorrow. Come sister we better get back to the castle before the our guard start to wonder where we are."

Luna said to Celestia. She nodded and looked at Fluttershy one lasted time as walked away with her sister. As Fluttershy looked at the Princess leave she felt something being placed on her finger. She looked down and saw Twilight put her element on her ring finger.

"Princess Celestia, wants us to keep the elements on, just in case something happened."

Fluttershy nodded in understanding.

"Come on Fluttershy! We haven't got all night!"

Rainbow's screams filled the night sky. Fluttershy flinches at the sudden turn of Rainbow's voice but walked over to her side.

"Well see ya'll in the morning."

Applejack said to her friends only to look at Fluttershy in the end.

"Are you sure you can handle this sugar-cube?"

Fluttershy gave her friend and warm smile.

"I'll be fine Applejack. I know Discord won't hurt me."

Applejack was going to say something only to have Rainbow cut in.

"Lets. go."

Rainbow said grabbing Fluttershy by her shoulder guiding her as they walked away from their group of friends.

"Flutters how can you possibly think that monster is your 'Angel of Music'. I mean look at him he...he is just filled with evil and chaos!"

Fluttershy just shook her head and said to Rainbow in her calm voice.

"My mother once spoke of an angel, I used to dream he'd appear. Now as I speaking, I can sense him and I know he's here."

Rainbow looked at Fluttershy in confusion, trying to gather what Fluttershy is saying as she continued.

"Here in my heart he calls me softly. Somewhere inside hiding. Somehow I know he's always with me. He, the unseen kindness."

Rainbow shook her head fast, denying her thoughts of Fluttershy words.

"Fluttershy you must have been dreaming. Stories like this can't come true. Fluttershy, you are talking in nonsense, and it's not like you."

Fluttershy gave Rainbow her sweet smile as she beings to sing.

"Angel of music
Sweet and kindness
Grant to me your glory."

It was then when Rainbow join along

"Who is this angel
This..."

Rainbow sang as she grabbed her friend's hand as they sang together.

"Angel of music
Hide no longer
Secret and strange angel."

Fluttershy looked around the sun setting sky above and said in her low voice, yet it wasn't scared or filled with fear, it was like that she was at peace and happiness.

"He's with me, even now."

Rainbow started to fell Fluttershy's hands getting warmer than usual.

"Your hands are warm."

Fluttershy didn't listen to Rainbow's comment and still continued her saying her words in that same voice.

"All around me."

That's when Rainbow looked at her friends face and saw it was red. She wasn't sure it Fluttershy was having a fever or for what she hope wasn't true, that she was in love with that monster that she called her 'Angel of Music'

"Your face, Fluttershy is red."

That was when Fluttershy looked at Rainbow with a surprised looked on her face.

"W-What do you mean Rainbow Dash?"

"All I am saying is that your face is a little red, Flutters. Are you feeling aright?"

Rainbow said with a worried look on her face. Fluttershy's eyes widen.

"O-Oh I'm fine Rainbow. I-I'm just a little overwhelmed for what just happened. Well I am gonna go home now. See you tomorrow Rainbow."

"Flutters wait..!"

Fluttershy didn't hear what Rainbow said after that. She ran back to her home.


"Is everything ok, Fluttershy? You look like you were running away from and angry mob?"

Discord said as Fluttershy slammed her front door behind her.

"I-I am alright Discord. I-I am just tired. I mean a lot of stuff happened today."

Discord nodded in agreement and gave Fluttershy sad eyes.

"I am sorry for what happened at the tree. It's just that was were Posey and I first met and I got lost in-"

Fluttershy cut Discord off by putting her arms around him, pulling him into a hug.

"It's ok, Discord. I kind of figure that."

Discord smiled and pulled Fluttershy more closed to his body, filling her warmth against him.

"By the way Fluttershy, what were you going to say before your friends came?"

Fluttershy cheeks turned into a bright red.

"To be honest to myself, I was going to tell Discord that I.."

"Fluttershy?"

Fluttershy was cut off from her thoughts when she heard Discord's voice. She looked up at his beautiful yellow- red eyes. She felt like that his eyes were pulling her away from her senses. She felt so clam and relax as if she was in a wonderful dream. The only thing that was clear to her was a soft voice in her head.

"Fluttershy, do you love me?''

"H-Huh?"

Fluttershy said in a weak tone as she tried to understand why the voice was saying that.

"Do you love your 'Angel of Music'?"

"I...I"

Fluttershy tried to answer the voice but she felt her thoughts and body give out, only to meet darkness in the end.


As Discord carried Fluttershy to her room, he made a small chuckle.

"She didn't even answer my question. All well, I'll ask her tomorrow."

Discord opened the door to Fluttershy's room. He looked around the room to see a bed in the corner to the room and next to it was a dresser with photos around it. Curious, Discord walked up to the dresser and saw a photo of Fluttershy when she was a kid and next to her was.

"Oh, Posey. How I love you so much, but could it be that I am starting to fall in love with Fluttershy?"

Discord looked at the young maiden in his arms and gave her a small smile.

"Oh, Fluttershy. Look what you have done to me."

Discord said as he placed Fluttershy on her bed and put the covers over her. He looked at Fluttershy to see that their was a smile on her face. Discord smile and looked out the window into the night sky.

"What a beautiful night it is, don't you think Posey?"

Discord asked as if he was going to get an answer, only to have nothing to reply to him.

"Remember the lullaby I used to sing to you before you went to sleep?"

Discord then looked at Fluttershy and sighed. He took he\is hand and softly stroke her hair.

"Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly, gently night unfurls it's splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night"

"H-Huh?"

Discord stopped his singing when he heard Fluttershy's soft voice, her eyes partly opened. He smiled sweetly and with gentle hands he took both of his hands and put them on both sides of Fluttershy's cheeks. Discord when continued his song.

"Close your eyes and surrender to your darkness dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before"

Fluttershy's eyes then slowly closed and smiled as the soothing voice cradled her to sleep.

"Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
hear it, feel it, secretly possess you,
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me"

Discord took his hand and ran through Fluttershy's soft pink hair.

"Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night"

As Discord finished the song he slowly walked out of the room and went into the living room.

"Goodnight, my sweet Fluttershy. "
