//------------------------------// // Even Chaos gets a happily ever after // Story: Labyrinth of Chaos // by ADenter1 //------------------------------// Even Chaos gets a happily ever after *One year later “Don’t tell me you still don’t approve?” Fluttershy blinked at Spike, she already knew he didn’t approve and she understood why but she had her own reasons. Then again so did he. “Then I won’t, but come on! This is horrible!” Spike groaned, dramatically falling to his knees. “It’s one of the happiest days a mare and stallion could have,” she lowered her ears, her eyes sparkling and glistening with happiness and tears. Of joy, not sadness. “You forget he’s not exactly 100% stallion?” Rainbow Dash narrowed a hot pink colored eye. “And this is the fastest anyone could have prepared their wedding!” the light blue Pegasus mare crossed her arms. Fluttershy stopped in her tracks and looked back to Rainbow. “We waited a year,” she pointed out. “I meant on how everything is already out there. The tables, the cake, the chocolate milk fountain, the everything!” “I think it’s all rather nice, you didn’t get to know him like I did. And he’s been nicer to everyone,” Fluttershy defended him. “He still plays pranks!” the dragon and the mare said in unison. “Because that’s his personality. Would you stop loving gems if the whole world wanted you to? And would you stop loving to fly if the whole world or just Soarin’ wanted you too? I won’t make him stop being who he is, and neither should you,” Fluttershy shrugged as the Breezies finally finished placing her headdress perfectly on her head. A small tapping at the door made Rainbow Dash go in alert mode. “Who is it?” she flew above the door in a defensive stance, ready to strike. “You could attack Discord with a mighty try, but I don’t think his reaction would settle well with Fluttershy,” one out of three actually knew who was behind the door, but what if it was one of Discord’s tricks? “Come in Zecora,” Fluttershy smiled softly. “Zecora?” Spike questioned as the zebra stepped in. Even the zebra of rhymes was dressed in honor for the grand day that she too had been waiting for. It had taken a long time for Discord to confess, but he did. Six months into this very year was when he proposed. It was fascinating and Zecora found it to be a pleasant day filled with joy for the Chaos City and the Lord of Chaos, but she still smirked whenever Discord tried to deny anything. She knew the truth. Zecora was wearing a pale green dress with thin see through sleeves that held leafy patterns, showing that she was from the Everfree Forest, with small flowers and exotic herbs place in her mane and tail. “You look beautiful Fluttershy, despite the groom you are a lucky mare, and I do not mean to pry, but is he in his chaotic lair?” she tilted her head curiously. “He’s not getting cold feet now is he? He better not walk out on her!” Rainbow Dash glared, more to the groom than the zebra. “Thought you didn’t like him? Since he did once make you a Pegasus puppet and hang you from a tree limb,” Zecora questioned. “I don’t, but there is no way he’s walking out on Fluttershy! Come on Spyro!” Rainbow dashed (no pun intended) out of the bride’s dressing room and after Discord. “Why can nobody except for Zecora and Fluttershy get my name right?” Spike shook his head, following the trail of rainbow. Fluttershy looked to the zebra, amusement shining in her eyes. “You can stop now. And don’t you know it’s bad luck?” she smiled as the zebra melted away into her soon to be husband. “No! No groom see bride!” Seabreeze and the other Breezies said in their language. “I don’t know what they’re saying,” Discord stated, not really paying attention to the innappropriate words Seabreeze was using. Naughty. “It’s okay, make sure Rainbow Dash didn’t hurt herself,” she smiled to the Breezies. They obeyed, but Seabreeze get Discord one last stink eye before taking off. “Why did you pretend to be Zecora?” she asked. “They wouldn’t have let me in had I been myself,” he shrugged. “Besides, can’t I see my bride on our lucky day?” he twirled her around like an elegant ballerina. “Not before, bad luck,” she giggled. “I think I can handle that,” he showed a toothy grin. “Besides, Zecora was actually the one who told me to come in and talk to you,” he crossed his arms. “Are you still irritated?” Fluttershy resisted laughing. She and the zebra had actually become close friends over the past year, and although Zecora had kind of sparked embarrassment before, during, and after the proposal, she was a good friend to have. “What did she want us to talk about?” she asked. “That’s the thing, I don’t know... But I do have a special surprise planned for after the wedding,” he enveloped her in a hug. “Remember when we hugged for the first time? I had to see my chiropractor after that,” he smirked as she playfully rolled her eyes. “Hmm, sure,” she smiled. “Hey if we’re remembering things, then why don’t we remember when Zecora showed us the destinies? Along with the dream you had,” she hid the fact that she too had it. “I am beginning to think that Zecora planned this all out,” Discord sighed, it was a happy sigh. Though a mischievous glint in his eyes gave it away. “After Zecora told you to talk to me what did you do?” Fluttershy folded her arms, narrowing her gaze though and amused smile was still on her face. Discord smiled, both mischievous and amused. “You know me so well, eh she’s fine. She’ll live if that’s what you’re asking,” he shrugged, holding back laughter. “Will she survive without being forever traumatized?” Fluttershy lifted a delicate eyebrow. “Well...” Discord looked down, secretly smirking inside. (Cut scene) In a world where every telatubbies, Charlie the Unicorn, and Marshmallow people are singing Baby by Justin Bieber and Bieber actually exists... Zecora stared at the telatubbies, the blue and pink unicorn, and the marshmallows in sheer horror. “I helped you to see that your love was forever and true, but now Fluttershy will be horribly distraught when I kill you,” she whispered to Discord. (Return to Fluttercord) “She’ll be fine, more or less,” he chuckled as Fluttershy shook her head, an amused and sympathetic smile on her lips. “Fluttershy I can’t find him! That rotten little-! Get out of there! Bad luck!” Rainbow Dash ripped the duo apart, throwing Discord out the door and duct taping it shut and boarding it up as well. “Now how do I get out?” Fluttershy asked as Spike adjusted his tie with a scowl dedicated to Discord on his face. “The window, besides the wedding is outside,” Rainbow opened the window, throwing Spike out and pushing Fluttershy out as well. Both mares flew up, Fluttershy catching Spike in the process much to his relief. The music, started by Octavia and even Vinyl, began playing ‘Here comes the Bride’ as she began walking down the aisle, Rainbow and Spike taking their seats. Angel was watching Discord with Seabreeze, both small creatures ready to attack if anything went... chaotic. Sapphire Sunlight was not present but Dapper Sunlight and Buttercup were in the front row sitting next to Caramel Smooch who had tears in her eyes. Same as Rarity. Surprise was in Cadence’s eyes, Shining Armor was sitting next to her, watching Flash Sentry with intent as he sat next to Twilight Sparkle. And last but not least Princess Luna and Princess Celestia were sitting in the back, watching with congratulations and expectance. “Why is Zecora not here?” Celestia whispered to her younger sister. “Let’s just say that when she gets back Fluttershy may end up being a widow,” Luna shook her head, amusement in her eyes now. After the vows were said and the final kiss was made everybody cheered, still waiting for some kind of Chaos surprise that would haunt them all forever, and began eating chocolate or vanilla cake with chocolate milk as the only beverage. Literally. “Why are they all looking at me like they’re waiting for something?” Discord pointed with his lizard’s tail. “Probably because you’re the Lord of Chaos and this is your wedding, anything is possible,” Fluttershy chuckled. “Fair point,” he grinned. “Are you planning something?” she asked, then hesitated. “On second thought don’t answer that, somebody might panic,” her words made her husband laugh. “So how’s little Sunshine?” he asked, drinking the cup instead of the milk. “Sunlight,” she corrected. “Tomato TA-mato,” he rolled his wrist, tossing the milk behind him that created a small explosion. “He’s good, but his first word last month was rather frightening,” she smiled at the memory, but laughed at how Buttercup and Sapphire Sunlight panicked. “Oh?” he raised a white eyebrow. “You’ll find out soon enough, I’m sure,” she sighed, still smiling. “Don’t forget you’re surprise,” he whispered, causing Rainbow Dash to narrow her gaze suspicously as she slow danced with Soarin’. It oddly reminded Fluttershy of her dream that she surprisingly shared with Discord. “Time to go,” he lightly gripped her hoof, making the two poof away. They appeared in a beautiful pink and cream carriage that had Fluttershy’s cutie mark on the sides on each door and even on the back. “Oh, almost forgot,” she threw the bouquet of roses out the window. Lyra, Bon Bon, and Derpy all dashed for it, only to start wrestling each other as Pinkie Pie stood there holding it tightly with a huge grin plastered on her face. “Uh, who’s that standing next to her?” Discord questioned. “I think that’s... It can’t be... Huh... That’s new,” Fluttershy smiled for her friend. The sound of Twilight singing 'Love is in Bloom’ again was in the distance, but what was amusing was ‘handsome groom’ was changed to ‘mostly handsome’ much to Discord’s annoyance and Fluttershy’s giggle filled amusement. “You’re surprise,” the carriage began flying away, much to her surprise. “This is only part one,” he smiled. “What movie did you steal this from?” she smirked. “I think it was from 1978, I forget what it was called though. Thought it’d be nice,” he faked sadness. “Perfect,” she hugged him, exacerbating it by death gripping his spine again. “That’s... spine...” a large crack made her let go, a smile still on her face. Looking to her husband she saw that he was bent at an acute angle. “Now what?” she grinned. “I see my chiropractor,” he snapped his spine back in place, groaning in the process. “I have broken my spine and I cannot get up,” he chuckled. “Can I open them now?” she pleaded, his mismatched hands still covering her eyes. “Only if you want to ruin part 2,” Discord shrugged. “Maybe I do,” she countered. “Not happening,” he laughed. Suddenly they stopped, though his hands still covered her eyes. “Now?” she asked. “Okay, now,” he removed his hands. Fluttershy gasped in awe and wonder as she saw a beautiful, foreign, and exotic garden filled with all her animal friends, Seabreeze, Angel, and the other Breezies as well. “Do you... like it?” he asked, pulling a bird from one of his antlers as they all tackled the mare happily. “LOVE IT!” Fluttershy squealed happily underneath a flurry of fur. “Yay... you’re bear has a bib... a fork... and a knife... and is staring at me,” he blinked at the bear, noticing the drool dripping from his chin. Once again a gray striped letter appeared and for a strange reason Discord opened it. “My revenge is not quite yet complete, but my bear friend does need something to eat,” he read aloud. “P.S. he is protected from your magic, and for poor Fluttershy it could be horribly tragic!” his eyes widened. (After a few hours of Discord being chased by bear) Night had fallen, Luna had out done herself. A beautiful dark sky alit by a full moon and stars surrounding the moon, all in the shape of a heart. A new constellation that would come only on Fluttershy and Discord’s anniversary. The constellation for the newlyweds was titled Fluttercord by Pinkie Pie. To both the bride and the groom the wedding and honeymoon had been perfect, and life would be grand. And once again the two were in dreamland, Fluttershy reliving the wedding and honeymoon and herself laughing with her animals as Discord was chased by the bear and Discord. Well let’s just say Zecora out did herself in getting her revenge, and she got out too. “His nightmare brings me my laughter, and who would have guessed that even Chaos could get a happily ever after?” Zecora asked, walking into the Everfree forest with a smile in her eyes and on her lips. THE END Or is it?
