Discord frowned at Luna and she frowned back. Discord used his magic to press an icebag on his head, where a bruise laid as he moaned in pain. Luna rolled her eyes when he did that. "Why did you have to hit me so hard?" Discord asked, looking away from her.
"I don't know. Why do you have to be so annoying?" Luna answered back with anger.
"Well if you don't like it then why are you following me. I'm perfectly capable on walking on my own!!" Discord answered, raising his voice louder than Luna's previously was
"Because I think you'll need help giving proof to Fluttershy that you underwent a spell making YOU, DISCORD, AN ALICORN WHO DANCED WITH HER LA-hmmph"
"QUIET DOWN WOMAN!" Discord shoved the icebag into Luna's mouth silencing her as he looked around vigorously, checking if anypony heard. Though, The nearest pony was about 20 feet away, drunk. Probably from last night's Gala
Luna tried to push the icebag out of her mouth with her magic but to no avail. She didn't expect Discord to be that strong. "well..." Discord started, scratching the back of his neck. " I thought of not...telling her about that..." Discord admitted slowly.
Luna spat out the icebag at him, hitting him in the neck. The sudden change in temperature made him cringe. "Wath? Wai?...liphs numph." Luna spoke and immediately rubbed her lips. The cold from the ice had made her lips numb.
"Well yesterday, Fluttershy...She...She.." Discord said, looking down sadly. Luna stared at him, trying to convince herself that he wasnt crying. But she could confirm it. She looked at his head where the bruise was and bit her lip. She felt bad. "Please, tell me whats wrong," Luna hesitantly wrapped her arm around his neck but before she could, Discord looked at her, his eyes slowly clouded up with tears. "She fell in love with somepony else...She fell in love with this...this...handsome and charming prince, Prince Strife," Discord said, mocking the name at the end, with his shaky voice, forcing himself not to break down infront of Luna.
Luna stared at him awkwardly. She hesitated. She had no idea on what to do. She wrapped her hoof around his neck. "Do you really think she fell in love with the Prince looks and not the Prince's personality?". Discord lifted his head slightly. "Do you really think Fluttershy is that kind of mare? A mare who cares about somepony's looks more than their personality?" Luna questioned. Discord stood up without knowing and continued to walk. Luna frowned at him. "Rude" Luna said under her breath and hurried to Discord's side. Discord was lost in thought. Maybe Luna was right. But ... The way she looked at me last night, the way she reacted. Was towards the Prince and not the draconequus. Sure Fluttershy doesn't judge somepony's looks but she can be attracted to them. I too changed my personality to make myself more...likable. Even If I tell her about the spell, she would just snap at me. She'll think I'm a creep. Bu-
Discord's train of thought halted when he was knocked onto the floor by somepony...familiar. His head was hazy from the impact but the texture of the pony's soft fur was too familiar to him. "F-fluttershy?" He shook his head to clear up his vision and looked at the yellow pony slouched ontop of him" He immediately helped fluttershy up and checked if she was okay. "Fluttershy, Dear are you okay?". Fluttershy stumbled a little and shook her head. "Y-y-yes I'm- Prince Strife! Princess Luna!" She bowed down infront of royalty. Discord smiled and brought his hoof infront of her. "Like I said last night, You don't have to do that," Fluttershy looked up and shyly grabbed Discord's hoof. He pulled her back up to her hooves. Twilight, who crashed into the ground next to them slowly regained her consciousness. "Are we late?" Twilight asked faintly, gripping her head which is throbbing after crashing into the ground. Straight after, A train chugged its way into the train station which was right next to them.
"There's your answer" Discord said bluntly. The sound of steam leaving the train followed by a loud voice shouting "all aboard" snapped Twilight out of her trance. "We should leave, don't want to miss the train" Discord stated while walking over to the station, Fluttershy nodded and followed afterwards. Twilight lifted her hoof to walk over them but Luna used her magic and pulled Twilight's. She stared at Luna.
"Keep an eye on him" Luna said in a low and serious tone. Twilight looked at the two who were chatting while waiting for her to join them in the train. He seems innocent. she thought. Twilight looked at the princess of the night with concerned eyes. Luna let go of twilight's tail and she flopped onto the floor, face first. Luna stopped her when she was in the middle of a step.
"Final call for ponyville!" The pony in a conductor's hat shouted as the train began to start up again. Twilight lifted her head and darted to where Fluttershy and Discord are. She turns back and looks at Luna. Luna gave her a stern look and a nod. Twilight nodded back before the train doors closed on her.
The trio sat near the door. Discord quickly sat next to Fluttershy before Twilight does. He leaned over to Fluttershy's ear and whispered
"It's nice to see you again...dear"
