Fluttershy woke up exhausted and confused. What had happened last night? she thought to herself the last thing she remembered was a bright light and nothing else.
Fluttershy groaned as she began to sit up feeling her eyes open slightly, she reached out trying to grab her dressing gown to shield her from the cold but found she couldn't feel it, in fact she couldn't feel any warmth anywhere. Fluttershy gasped as memories from last night started forming in her brain, she remembered hearing the piercing screams and cries of her mother and father yelling before that bright light appeared.
Fluttershy gave a shaky gasp as she remembered his face smirking at her, laughing at her and-and...
She started to cry as she looked at her surroundings feeling goosebumps everywhere on her back. She was in a dungeon with only a window and a bucket of water inside.
It was very dark, almost impossible to make out anything the only light she had was the moonlight coursing through the glass into the dungeon.
Fluttershy froze as she heard the sound of hoofsteps nearby, she stood up and slowly picked up a stick hoping that somehow that would protect her. Slowly she walked towards the dungeon door trying not to let out a scream as the hoofsteps came closer. As she walked towards the gates she noticed that the sound stopped, Fluttershy became confused but before she could think of anything a set of keys came flying to the door making a loud clang noise. Fluttershy gasped as she reached out to grab the object lying before her, but before she could grab them they disappeared and she felt a pair of eyes staring at her.

Discord glared at the creature below him feeling rage course through his body but he quickly calmed himself sending derpy away before he did something he'd regret later, he was just glad he could snap the keys away before the mare grabbed them. After he saw his maid vanish completely he teleported inside the dungeon grinning darkly as he stood in the corner waiting for her to turn around. When she did he was surprised to see her glare at him with pure hatred in her eyes, those beautiful teal eyes seemed to be a darker shade of blue with a hint of green mixed into it. And he hated it.
Fluttershy glared at him trying to look brave and show him she wasn't intimidated by him, but that quickly past as he started smiling sickly taking steps towards her cornering her at the door, a small whimper escaping her throat as he leaned in and grabbed her chin roughly forcing her to look at him a small tear running down her cheek.
Discord wanted to squeeze the life out of this mare for even daring to try to intimidate him but he couldn't, Satisfied she had learnt her lesson he let go opening the door and locking her in tightly daring not to look at her or he might just meet her eyes. Those beautiful.. Discord shook his head reminding himself she was a prisoner and nothing else. So before he left he threw in some bread and teleported away.
Once Fluttershy saw that he was gone she shrunk down and started crying, wrapping her hooves around her longing for her parents to hug her tight telling her everything was alright but that would never happen for she had sold her life away to the devil himself. Fluttershy stood up and walked towards the window wiping her eyes gazing up at the sky and began to pray.
" I don't know if you can hear me or if you're even there,
I don't know if you would listen to a princesses prayer.
Yes I know I have everything I shouldn't speak to you,
but now I'm just hoping will you help me now..
Faust help my people hungry from birth
show them the mercy they don't find on earth,
Faust help my parents who are worried for me,
show them I'm alright and that I miss them too..
Faust help my people fillies of. Faaauuuussssstttttt..."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Discord heard everything Fluttershy sang and sighed he felt something pull at his heart he didn't know what it was but it felt like, like. Guilt? He shook his head and growled at himself, what was wrong with him today he shouldn't feel guilty, she came by her own free will it's not like he dragged her here. So why did he feel so... Sorry for her. He was soon interrupted by his thoughts when a gray pegasus stood behind him with her head facing down. Discord eyed her for a moment and then glared at her he remembered her trying to free Fluttershy by throwing her the keys. Derpy looked up and shrunk at his powerful gaze she knew why he was angry at her so she decided to break the ice.
"I- I- I'm sorry ma- master I just wanted to get a- a better look at her I sw- swear!" Derpy cried hoping to break his glare but failed
" Sorry, SORRY!?! YOU COULD HAVE LET HER ESCAPE!!! " He bellowed.
Derpy then shivered and shrank even more tears streaming down her face her wonky eyes staring at the ground. Discord breathed heavily trying to control his temper and kneeled down until he was at Derpy's eye level.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you Derpy, but just make sure you don't ever do that again. Understand?" He spoke softer this time but also firm to make sure she fully understood. Derpy nodded and wiped away her tears smiling, Discord gave a small smile before telling her to go back to the servant's bedroom.
But before Derpy left she spoke in a quiet voice. " May I make a suggestion master? "
Discord eyed her suspiciously before nodding.
Derpy beamed and said. " Well I was just thinking maybe because the mare is going to stay with us for quite sometime maybe she would like her own bedroom? "
She waited for an answer but got none so she sighed and walked away silently.
Discord stared at Derpy as she walked away and left him in his thoughts. At first the idea of it was stupid, if he gave her a room she might think she could do whatever she wanted and might poke around place's that were private, forbidden, etc. But then the pull of his heart interrupted him, he needed to make it up to her to get rid of his foolish guilt. Discord growled at his weakness and stomped up the stairs.
When made it up to the dungeons he found her asleep on the ground shivering slightly. He gazed at her for a little while for the sight he saw was so beautiful. Her body was rising up and down slowly, her face glowed with innocence and her body was a delicious creamy yellow, the moonlight engulfed her with it's light making her look warm and safe from any darkness and her hair was so smooth and silky with the perfect shade of pink and it smelt of rose petals. Discord never realized this but she was the most beautiful mare he had ever seen even more beautiful than Celestia. He felt as if he could stare at her forever but that moment passed when she coughed and shivered more, Discord face soon turned from desire to concern, he teleported inside and ever so gently picked her up cradling her as if she was a newborn filly tucking her in his arm, Discord was in awe as she snuggled against his fur, her tiny body against his, for the moment he thought that nothing felt more right than this, but quickly shook his head growling at himself for thinking such things.
Discord quickly but carefully walked down the stairs and through a long hallway until he came to a door, he used one arm to slowly turn the handle and open the door trying hard not to wake the mare. He walked inside and saw a bed in the middle of the room he quickly walked up to it and drew away the covers gently placing her down putting the blanket on top. He nodded and turned to leave but before he could he felt a small hoof grab his paw, he turned around and saw the mare looking at him. At first he panicked but the mare smiled at cuddled his paw before letting go and said." Goodnight daddy, I love you." And then she fell asleep.
Discord who was awestruck smiled softly and bent down and kissed her forehead and left closing the door. Once he did he stormed towards his room growling at himself and facepalmed himself repetitively. Why the hell did he do that!? He thought to himself he felt like a huge fool for kissing her, yes it was only on the forehead but she's his prisoner he isn't supposed to treat her nicely, he's supposed to make her life and the parents life a living hell! Discord growled and fell on his bed. Tomorrow he'll act like nothing happened and if she asked him how she got there then he'll just lie. Simple. Discord groaned and then sighed maybe sleep will help him forget,no, hopefully sleep will make him forget.
