//------------------------------// // Discord Introduction // Story: The Endless Summer Sun Celebration // by Mocha Star //------------------------------// /Discord Narration/ Oh, how do I describe the past 10,000 years? I guess miserable would be most accurate. Typically 10,000 years would be less than a blink of an eye for my people, but within my first technical decade here I was imprisoned in stone, twice, had most of my favorite powers revoked, was beaten tricked and betrayed, not to mention I made the wonderful friend, Fluttershy. She was kind, sweet and happy, often too much so at times I felt. As Discord, in this world, I was alone. When she died she was surrounded by her animals and her pony friends, the ones that were left anyway, and she was happy. However, after she was gone I felt alone; more than I have ever before. It was and still is a sensation that I wish I could never experience again, yet, it has consumed me for thousands of years. I have made a few newer friends, most good and a few, not so good, but none of them are even crumbs on the floor compared to the pedestal I’ve put Fluttershy on. I think I should move on: the world I came to is vastly different and much better than it was destined to be, and mortal life begins and ends in its typical style. So, now I have my powers back, I’ve been fully reinstated, I have all the things I missed and wished for: except Fluttershy, my first and best friend. I’ve thought about bringing her back to life and taking her with me across the universes and dimensions, but I know she would resent me for giving her life while her animals died. Should I create a universe just for her? No, she’d spend her entire existence alone and caring for animals, even if it is an eternity. So, what am I, a god-reformed, to do? /Discord Narration/ - Thinking for what felt like a year; Discord had a thought that would benefit him and Fluttershy at the same time. Smiling wickedly he had a plan to put into action: First, he would distract his younger self for a few days. Second, he would make sure Fluttershy would live a happy life beyond her forest friends. With a snap of his fingers a flash of light engulfed him and his plan was in action. -
