She heard a twig break snapping her out of her thoughts she then turned her head to the noise holding up her gun, she sighed with relief once she saw it was just a bunny. She put down her gun and smiled at the bunny, the rabit hurriedly ran away frightened. Fluttershy picked up her gun and turned around, and all the breath was sucked of out her lungs when she saw the cave in front of her. It was the hideout. But the thing that frightened her the most was the creature that was guarding the entrance.
She finally understood what the others were talking about when they said that the Dracronequi had mitchmatched body parts. Even though the Dracronequus looked frightening, she also thought how much he looked interesting.
Fluttershy panicked when Discord was turning her way, so she decided to run into the bushes.
'I hope I wasn't seen...' she thought.

His eyes bolted open when he heard the bushes rustle, he carefully walked over aiming his gun. He opened the bushes to see a frightened small Pegasus with buttermilk fur, hair that was the lightest shade of pink, and eyes that were the deepest teal. She seemed to sparkle in the dark night. But that was interrupted when she bolted up and started to aim her gun at him. Following his instincts, he also aimed his gun.
But when he looked into her eyes he knew he couldn't do this, he couldnt kill a pony. He dropped his gun and held up his paw and claw. He saw her face turn into a face of confusion.
She looked into his eyes seeing a look of a calm and a sorry look. She suddenly felt guilt thinking how she almost killed an animal, something she never even tried to think about. So she did the same, she dropped her gun.
Discord put down his paw and claw and saw how this situation was beginning to get awkward, so he decided to speak. He opened his mouth put almost immediately closed it, he didn't know what to say.
When he finally thought up what to say, he opened his mouth again.
"So, uh, what's your name?" He asked awkwardly.
Fluttershy looked up at him and her mind started to race, she didn't know what to do or say.
Thinking that she might've not understood he asked again.
"What is your name?" He asked a little bit more clearer.
"My n-name? W-well it's F-Fluttersh-" she answered before she was interrupted by a noise of a gunshot firing. She looked up at Discord with horror realizing she was the one who was shot. Discord was surprised at the sudden shot, he looked down at the bleeding arm Fluttershy had. He looked up to see who fired and saw a tall figure holding up a gun. And the tall figure was Eris.
Fluttershy collapsed and fainted from the loss of blood. He looked down at her with concern and would've helped her if he wasn't interrupted by Eris's voice.
"Good job distracting her, that was a nice move making her think that you were giving up." She said patting Discord's back.
Discord weakly smiled vp back slowly nodding, that wasn't the plan at all.
"Well I came to tell you that it's time for your break, come inside when you're ready." She said before walking back inside the hideout.
Discord looked down a the fainted pony and didn't know what to do, he certainly couldn't leave her there. But when he made up his mind he began to walk over to Fluttershy, he picked her up bridle style thinking to himself.
'Ugh, what am I doing?! I have to kill her not save her! But how could I?'
