//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: The secret/celebration // Story: Double The Chaos // by The Lutece twins //------------------------------// "Gad damn bucking camper!" Lyra screamed into the headset now that she had been killed by the same person in the same spot on Call of Duty: Black Ops Two. It had been the sixth failed attempt to kill one person and she finds herself getting nowhere with each try. Sarah stirred in her sleep due to the yell from Lyra, and slowly wakes, rubbing her eyes with her hands. Michael snorts and sleepily opens his eyes from the yelling. "Huh.... wha?" He asked. Sarah comes out into the living room unaware of the changes that had taken place. "Lyra? What's wrong?" She asked. "Oh, just some damn campers." Lyra said. She didn't look away from the flashing screen as gun shots were heard coming from the speakers. "Oh, okay." Sarah said. She went over and sat next to Lyra on the couch, watching as Lyra's fingers danced across the controller, with several clicking sounds. Michael gets out of the bed, enters the bathroom and turns on the lights. His eyes widen at the sight in the mirror. "Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!" He screamed. Lyra looks at Sarah for a second. "Did you hear tha-" She stopped mid sentence at what sat before her, and smiled. "Hey now, you're an anthro just like me!" She said. "I'm what!?" Sarah yelled. She looked at herself to see she was covered in fur like Lyra,, but her's was purple. She had hooves instead of feet, and a long white and purple tail flowed from her backside. Michael breaths heavily as he looks at himself through the mirror. He turns and runs out of the bathroom, only to trip and fall and smack his face on the ground with a solid thud! "D-Daddy?" Sarah asked. She got up and walked into his bedroom to see him on the floor. "Daddy!" She yelled as she tries to help him up. Lyra shrugs and keeps playing the game. Michael sits up, slightly dazed. He shakes his head and looks down at Sarah. "Sarah, is that you?" He asked. "Yeah, its me...I dont like it though..." Sarah said, looking down. "I'm a sasquatch how hairy I am..." she said. Michael hugs Sarah. "Hey, it's going to be okay Sarah." He said. Sarah hugs back. "I don't wanna be a pony..." She said. Michael looks at her pupil less purple swirling eyes. "I know. I can do the same thing that I did with Lyra with you. I helped her stay a anthro. I can do the same with you if you'd like." He said. "I wanna be human is what I meant..." Sarah said, looking down. "Nothing will be the same ever again..." She sniffed. Michael gently rocks her back and forth. "Hey, hey, hey, I will be here for you Sarah, no matter what." He said. "I know daddy, and i guess anthro would be the closest thing to human so could you do that for me?" She asked. Michael smiles and nods. "Sure sweetie. Now you may feel a slight tingling sensation." He said. "Okay, dad. And...think you could bring Dashie to life? " She asked as she held her Rainbow Dash doll out to him. Michael nods and closes his eyes and concentrates. "Sure!" He said. Sarah feels the tingling in her body, as she was slightly lifted off the ground. Michael opens his eyes and there was a flash of light. Sarah landed on the ground again, and the tinging died down, but her doll was nowhere to be found. "Dashie?" She asked, just as a blur of rainbow was seen zipping under the bed. Michael looks at where Dashie flew under. "Oh, come now Dashie, is that a good way to treat friends?" He asked. Dashie cowered under the bed, shaking scared. "So big..." she whispered. Sarah goes under. "Hey, dont be scared...it's just me.. Sarah!" Sarah said. Dashie backed away. Sarah looks at her closer. "Oh, you're just a filly, that's why you're scared...I wont hurt you, okay? I promise." She said, holding a hand out to Dashie. Dashie backed up more and came out from the other side of the bed. Michael holds a big rainbow lollipop. "I guess Dashie doesn't want any candy." He said. Dashie's ears perk up. "Candy?" She asked. Sarah grabs her and crawls out from under the bed. Michael hands Dashie the lollipop. "Here you go Dashie, for being a good little filly." He said. Dashie takes it and chews on it happily. "Good lil filly." Sarah said. She held Dashie in an arm, stroking her mane with her other hand. Michael stands up and stagers a tiny bit due to the adjust of height. "Whoa, got to get used to that. Now, let's grab some breakfast." He said. "Okay. Come on Dashie, lets go eat!" Sarah said. "Oh...okay." Dashie said. Lyra was playing Need For Speed Shift now, making car noises as she races a Pagania Zonda F around a sharp corner. Michael walks down the hallway. Pokes his head around the corner and sees Lyra. "Hey, Lyra." He said. "Hey bud. Kept getting wasted by twelve year olds, so I'm playing this instead where little kids don't know crap about racing." Lyra said. Michael walks around the corner and chuckles. "Yea I know how that feels. The first time, I threw the controller out the window, literally." Michael said. "Unlike you, I know how to contain my anger." Lyra said. Michael walks into the kitchen and grabs a box of cereal and a bowl. "Yea, I know. But this guy kept spawn killing me." He said. "Exactly what happened to me!" Lyra said, focusing on the game. "Oh god damn noob hit me off the track!" She yelled. Sarah giggles and sits at the table. "What's going on?" Dashie asked. "I guess your not really paying attention to me, aren't you?" Michael asked. He looks at Dashie. "Oh, nothing much, Dashie. "Eenope!" Lyra said. "Are you my daddy?" Dashie asked. Michael smiles. "I guess I could be your daddy and Sarah your sister." He said. Dashie tilts her head. "Who is mom then?" She asked. She points to Lyra with a hoof. "Is she mommy?" She asked. Lyra looked up from her game. "What? I'm not anypony's mom!" She yelled. Michael laughs. "I will take that as a maybe." He said. "Wait...is that Rainbow Dash!?" Lyra yelled. She drops the controller and rushes over. "OH MY GAWD!! " She yelled. She picks her up from Sarah. "You're so cute!" She yelled, hugging her. "Who is my mom then?" Dashie asked. "Well... you don't have a mother." Michael said. He rubs the back of his neck with his claw. "Oh..." She said. Her head drops down and she suddenly looks sad. "Dont be sad, Dashie!" Sarah said, hugging her. "Dashie, you have us. We can be your family." Michael said. "Okay..." Dashie said, hugging Sarah back. "Thanks, big sis." She said. "No problem, Dash." Sarah said. She smiles and nuzzles her. "Group hug!" Michael said. They all join, but Dashie doesn't. Michael looks at Dashie. "Dashie, what's wrong?" Michael asked. "I'm confused..." She said. Michael tilts his head. "What are you confused about?" He asked. "I dont know who you are, who I am, where I am, how I got here, or anything..." Dashie said. "Well, your name is rainbow dash or Dashie for short. My name is discord, but my actual name is Michael smith. This is my daughter, Sarah. This is my friend Lyra. And your in my house, and I sorta created you." He said. "Oh...so I dont have any real parents then..." Dashie said, looking down. "Duh! Daddy is your real dad!" Sarah said. Michael nods. "That's true, since I created you, that makes me your father." He said. "Okay." Dashie said, shrugging. Michael smiles. "Now, come here and join in, ok?" He asked. Dashie was hesitant to join. "Come on, it'll be okay." Michael said. Dashie slowly approaches. "That's it, come on. That's a good filly." He said. Dashie hugs Sarah. "Good lil sis!" Sarah said happily. Michael ruffles up Dashie's mane. "That's a good girl." He said. "Thanks dad." Dashie said. Michael smiles. "Now, what should we do?" He asked. "Breakfast!" Sarah said. Lyra went back to her game. "Fuck... I lost..." She said. Michael nods. Sarah sits at the table. "Okie dokie!" He said. Dashie sits at the table as well. A chef's hat appeared on his head and a apron that said 'kiss the cook' appeared around his neck. He got to work on breakfast. Sarah giggles, while Dashie stares at her hooves. Michael hums a little tune while working on breakfast. Lyra continues playing her game. Sarah found a brush and began brushing her mane and tail. Dashie just sat there at the table thinking. Michael grabs a couple of plates. "It's almost ready!" He yells. Sarah went to brushing her fur. "Okay, daddy. " She said. Dashie looks around. "YES!! I FINALLY BEAT YOU BITCH! SUCK MY-" Lyra notices Sarah and Dashie right in the next room. "My big toe." Lyra said. Michael turns his head to glare at Lyra when she's yelling, then turns back to cooking when she fixes it. Lyra blushes. "Sorry..." She said. Dashie walked up to Micheal and shook his leg. "Dad." Dashie said. Michael looks down at Dashie. "Yes?" He asked. Dashie holds her forelegs out for him to pick her up. Michael smiles and picks Dashie up and sets her on his shoulders. "Thanks dad." Dashie said. "It's no problem, Dashie." He said as he grabs a plate. "Breakfast is ready!" He yells. "What did you make?" Dashie asked. Sarah was having trouble brushing her tail. Michael looks up at Dashie. "Well, I made hash browns, eggs, and toast." He said. "Okay!" Dashie said. She jumped back down and went to sit at the table next to Sarah. Michael grabs four plates filled with food and carefully walks towards the table. "Now, I may not be the best cook, but I did my best." He said as he sets the plates down on the table. "Enjoy." He said. Dashie eyes her food suspiciously. "It's okay, Dashie! Eat it's yummy!" Sarah said. Lyra pops her head out from behind the tv. "Food!?" She yelled. Michael sighs. "Yes, Lyra, food." He said. Lyra pauses the game and skips over to the table. "Awesome!" She said, and digs in. "erfs geuhd!" She said with a mouth full of food. Sarah giggles. Michael facepalms as he sits down. "Please, not at the table, Lyra." He said. Lyra swallows hard. "Don't do what?" She asked. Michael uses his talon to use a fork to eat his food. "Talk with your mouth full." He said. "Ah! You mean like this?" Lyra asked, taking another bite of her eggs."I'm talking with my mouth open!" She said. Michael snaps his talons and a zipper closes Lyra's mouth. "That should be better." He said. "Oh eaagh!?" She said. Her horn lit up and Micheal became very small. "Hahahahahaa!" She laughed. Michael snaps his talons and he returns to normal size. He snaps his talons again and Lyra appears facing the corner with a dunce hat on top of her head. "Now stop this nonsense and behave." He said. "Just trying to get you through the stress with some fun but i guess not. This is what i get in return for saving your daughter? BS!" She yelled, taking off the dunce hat and leaving. Michael sighs and stands up. "I will be right back." He said. Lyra huffs as she sat on the porch swing "Ass..." She said. Michael pokes his head outside. "Lyra?" He asked. Lyra was softly stroking her tail. "What do you want?" She said. She didn't even look at him. Michael sits next to her. "Looks, I'm sorry.... I'm sorry if I was a ass. I've been in alot of stress because this ain't my first time being fired from a job." He said. Lyra says nothing. Michael looks at her. "Can you ever forgive me, Lyra?" He asked. Lyra shrugs. "I guess that's as much as I will get from you, yea?" He said. "You yelled at me..." Lyra said, looking down. Michael/Discord puts a paw on her shoulder. "I'm sorry if I yelled at you. " He said. "I hate being yelled at..." Lyra sniffed and hugged him. After Sarah finished eating, as well as Dashie, they went into the living room to watch T.V. Michael/Discord hugs back. "It's going to be ok." He said. Lyra she stayed leaned on him, with her head on his chest. "Promise?" She asked. Sarah held dashie as she flipped through the channels. Michael/Discord nods. "I promise." He said. Lyra smiled up at him and hugged tighter. "Thanks." She said. Sarah sees something familiar on the news channel. She flipped back to it to see a camera in a helicopter flying over a twenty story tall, red eye'd Discord. "D-D-D-DAAAAD!" She yelled. Discord snaps his head towards Sarah's direction, quickly gets up and runs inside, carrying Lyra. He stops in the living room. "What is it Sarah?" He asked. Lyra holds tightly onto him. Sarah says nothing and points at the T.V. Discord looks at the T.V. and sees evil discord. He frowns and clinches his claw and paw into fists. "You." He said menacingly. Lyra she dropped down to the floor on her two hooves. "How is there two..." She asked as she held his paw in her hand. Dashie begins to tear up. "You...you did that, daddy?" She sniffed. Discord shakes his head. "No, I didn't do that. That's a more evil version of Discord, of me." He said. "Daddy would never do anything like that." Sarah said as she watches how evil Discord flattens a few cars parked on the side of the road. Lyra reaches a hand around Discord's waist. "He may be mean at times but I know this Discord wouldn't do that!" She yelled. She hugged him and kissed his cheek. "Lyra...you just kissed my dad..." Sarah said. Lyra blushes and pulls away. "Sorry it's just that..." She said, kicking the ground with a hoof. "It's..." She said. Discord blushes a deep red and some steam escapes his ears. "It's...It's ok." He said. "Sorry...now...what are we gonna do about bad discord who just turned the Empire State Building into a giant ice cream cone?" Lyra asked. "Hmmm. Well, the only way that I know... is to stop him. To help out the elements of harmony to stop him." Discord said. "Well no duh, somebody's gotta stop him, captain obvious!" Lyra said, punching his arm lightly. "And um...sorry that I kissed you..." She said as she nervously twirled a finger around a bit of her mane. "It's just that...I've...I..." She looks away. "Never mind..." She said. Discord places a claw on her shoulder and looks at her. "If you don't want to talk about it that's ok. I won't force you." He said. "Can...can I talk to you in private?" She asked. Discord nods. "Sure." He said. Lyra sighed and went into Micheal's room. Discord follows her. Lyra closes the door. "I'm gay. Well, at least i turned into Lyra, but...I lied about not being into men. Because...I like you, Micheal..." She said. She looks down. "I bet you want an explanation, huh?" She asked. Discord's eyes widen and he nods. "Now, before you say anything, I want to tell you that I don't hate you for being gay." He said. "Okay. I have been gay for about three years now, and when I met you, I felt this spark that I needed to...be with you, but when I found out about your wife, I-I knew there would never be an 'us' plus you aren't gay." Lyra said. She sighs again placing her face in her hands. "It hurts so much you want to be with a certain someone, but you know you can't...Even if by some slim chance you said you want to be with me, I couldn't. You're love it with your wife, and I know she's gone, hard enough as it is, but...I won't be able to commit to a relationship with you due to that. I kissed you because I love you...but I know we'll never be together..." She said. Tears had begun streaming down her cheeks as she sat on the bed, hugging her stomach. "I'm sorry..." She said. Discord sits next to Lyra and hugs her. "Hey, hey, hey, it's ok. You needed to get that out. I'm here for you." He said. Lyra sniffs and wipes her muzzle. "Thanks." She sniffed. She leaned on him. "Is it okay if you can at least hold me for a bit?" She asked. Discord smiles and nods. "Sure." He said. "I must seem like such a silly mare..." She said. Discord chuckles a little bit. "Yea. Now, shall we head back and see what Sarah and Dashie are doing?" He asked. "Okay. Do you think I'll find somepony to be with?" Lyra asked as she looked up at him, her eyes still teary. Discord looks at Lyra and smiles. He nods. "Yes. I'm sure that you will find your special somepony." He said. "I wanted it to be you, but i guess not." She said, getting up and leaving the room. Discord places a paw on her shoulder before she left the room. "Wait." He said. "Yeah?" She asked. She turns around, looking back with a sad and hearted broken expression. "I guess... I can make a acceptance and, be with you." Discord said. "No..." Lyra said, shaking her head. "I can't do that to you...I never should have said anything..." She said, trying to leave. Discord still has his paw on her shoulder. "Now wait, I don't want you to be like this. I want to help you. So if you being with me will make you happy, then I will alow it." He said. "But what about your wife? You should love her." She said. "I do love her, I miss her alot as well. But, seeing you like this, I will make a acceptance and be with you." He said. Lyra sniffled as she smiled and threw herself into him, hugging him tight. "Thank you. " She whispered. Discord hugs and smiles back. "It's no problem." He said. Lyra kisses his cheek. "I love you so much. Does this make me a mom now?" She asked. Discord nods. "I guess it does." he said. Lyra giggles. "Okay. Let's go check on our daughters then!" She said as she still held him. Discord smiles, nods, and carries Lyra out of the room. "Okay." He said. Sarah was wasting players easily on Call of Duty. Dashie sees Micheal and Lyra come out of the room. "Hi daddy!" She said happily. "Sarah, Dashie, we have a surprise for the both of you." Discord said. Sarah pauses the game and picks up Dashie. "Yeah dad?" She asked. "Want to tell them, or want me to?" Discord whispered to Lyra. "I wanna!" Lyra said. Discord nods. "Ok." He said. Lyra picks up Dashie and Sarah in her arms. "I'm your mom!" She said as she hugged them both tightly. "You and daddy got together? Awe!" Sarah said happily. "Hey, how about we celebrate by going out to eat. How does that sound?" Discord asked. "While evil you is terrorizing New York?" Sarah asked. "Yea, I know. But I wanted to share this moment." Discord said. Lyra nods. "Okay!" Sarah said. "Where are we going?" Dashie asked. "Were going out to eat, Dashie. So, who wants what?" Discord asked. "I know we're going out to eat, but where, daddy?" Dashie asked. "Yeah, captain obvious!" Lyra said. She giggled and kissed his cheek again. "Hmmm. Well, there's a souper salad not far from here. There's a golden corral as well. Will any one of those work?" He asked. "I BUCKING LOVE GOLDEN CORRAL!" Lyra yelled. Discord smiles. "Ok, Golden Corral it is." He said. Lyra smiles and offers her hand. Discord smiles. "Hold on, let me grab something real quick." He said. Lyra rolls her eyes. "Hurry up! I miss you already!" She said. She giggled as she carried the kids to the car. Discord nods and runs to his room real quick. "Now, let's see." He said. He looks around and grabs his keys. He looks at Screwball's propeller beanie and takes it. He runs out towards the car. "I'm back!" He said. "Driver's seat taken." Lyra said. She giggled slightly and moved over to the front passenger seat. Discord chuckles and gets in the front seat. "Oh yea, Sarah, I brought this with me." He said. He shows the propeller beanie. "Thanks dad!" Sarah said. She grabs it and puts it on her head. Dashie was trying to work her buckle. sees the propeller on the beanie spin as soon as she puts it on. And looks at Dashie. "Need help Dashie?" He asked. "I got it!" She said. As the buckle click clacked as she tried to put it on. "Let mommy help." Lyra said. She turns and reaches back to put it on. "There!" She said. "Thanks mom!" Dashie said. Sarah plays with her tail. "You know, I dont think being a pony is all bad...I think I'm kinda cute!" Sarah said. Discord nods. "You all are cute. Now, let's go grab some grub." He said. "WAIT!" Lyra yelled, putting her hoof on the brakes. "Won't they try to stop you since you're discord and all?" She asked. "Oh, yea. Your right. Hmmm." Discord said. He thinks and comes with a idea. "I have a idea!" He said. He snaps his fingers and he turns into a grey pegasus anthro with a tornado cutie mark. "How's this?" He asked. "Better!" Lyra said, hugging him. "Handsome stallion!" She said. She kisses his cheek. Discord blushes a little bit. "Now, let's grab some grub." He said as they drive out of the driveway. Lyra nuzzles his cheek. "Love you!" She said. Discord smiles. "I love you too." He said. "It means so much to hear you say that." Lyra said. Discord nods. "It does." He said. They slow down behind a motorist who's going slower than the speed limit. He honks the cars horn. Lyra uses her magic to lift the person's car and places it behind them. "There!" She said, smiling. Discord whistles. "Wow, that was great." He said. "Meh." She said. Discord sees the restaurant. "Were almost there." He said. "What will people think when they see us, daddy?" Sarah asked. "I think that they will be surprised and slightly confused. But I think that they will understand." Discord said. Lyra levitated Sarah and Dashie into her lap. "Anypony tries anything, I'm be there to save you while your father stuff his face!" She said. She laughed and softly punched Discord's arm. Discord laughs as he pulls in a parking spot near the restaurant. "And I will help as well." He said. "Your face to food I bet!" Lyra said. She stepped out of the car with Sarah and Dashie in her arms. Discord steps out of the car. "You ready?" He asked. Lyra was already walking in the odors across the lot so she didn't hear, with the girls close behind. Discord speed walks after them. "He-hey! Wait up!" He yells. "Slow ass!" She said. She smirked and walked inside, holding the door open for him. Discord catches up to them. "Thank you." He said, walking inside. Lyra spanks his tush as he walks in. Discord blushes slightly as he stops in front of the waiting desk. "Don't look at me! It was her!" Lyra said, pointing at Sarah. "Was not!" Sarah said. "Was too!" Lyra said. She sticks out tongue and giggles. "You're silly, mom." Sarah said. Discord looks at them both. "Your both silly." He said. "You too!" Lyra said,hugging him. Discord hugs back. A waitress comes. "Um...hello, a-and welcome to G-Golden Corral. L-let me show you to your table..." She said, turning around and begins walking. Discord follows the waitress. Lyra smacks his arm. "Don't be staring down there! You're supposed to do that to mee." She said, pouting. Discord blushes and looks at Lyra. "S-Sorry." He said. Lyra glares for a second, then laughs. "I can't be mad at you! You're so handsome!" She said, hugging him tighter. "Here's your table." The waitress said, pointing to one by a window which looked out to the parking lot. "Thank you." Discord said as he took a seat. Lyra sat in the chair next to Discord as Dashie and Sarah took the chairs on the other side of the table. Discord smiles. "I love all you can eat restaurants." He said. "All you can eat huh?" Lyra asked. She nibbled on Discord's shoulder. Sarah giggles. "you guys are cute." She said. Dashie nods. Discord chuckles. "Yea. Anyway, shall we get our food?" He asked. "We should get the kid's food first." Lyra said. Discord nods. "Yea, we should." He said. "I wanna do it!" She said. Discord nods again. "Ok. Want me to stay here so that no one else takes the table?" He asked. "Yeah and the kids need watching." She said. Lyra gave him a peck on the cheek, much closer to the lips this time, before walking off. Discord slightly blushes again. He looks around the restaurant and see people staring at him and his family. "We're just ponies...why are they staring?" Sarah asked. Discord continues to look around and sees some people take pictures with their phones. "I don't know Sarah. I guess they never saw people turning into ponies before, I guess." He said. "We already are ponies dad." Sarah said, giggling. "I'm actually beginning to like it." She said. Discord looks at Sarah and smiles. "I am starting to like it as well, Screwball." He said. "My name isn't...oh...well I guess it is now." Screwball said, giggling. "I like that name!" She said. "What do you mean you all turned into ponies?" Dashie asked. "Well Dashie, before, we weren't ponies. We were humans." Discord said. "Was I a human too?" Dashie asked. "You were a stuffed plushie..." Screwball said. "Oh, and then daddy brought me to life!" Dashie said. Discord nods. "Eeyup." He said. He sees Lyra coming back carrying some plates. "I got them both some mac and cheese, a salad, and two brownie squares which are to be eaten when everything else is gone, okay?" Lyra said. "Yess, mommy!" Both Dashie and Sarah said. "Good!" Lyra said, setting the plates down on the table. "You go get something, okay hun?" She asked as she placed a hand on Discord's shoulder. Discord nods and stands up. "Will do." He said. He walks towards the food. Lyra stared adoringly at the two fillies before her, one a pony, the other an anthro. Discord hums a little tune while he looks at the food in front of him. "Hmmm." He said, trying to think of what to get. Suddenly he was bumped quite hard. Discord looks and sees a man glaring at him while walking away. "Well excuse you, dude." He said, looking back at the food. He could see mac and cheese, potato salad, chicken, meat loaf, and other delecious things. "Who wants me to hold them?" Lyra asked. Sarah and Dashie both ran up to her. Lyra giggles a little and holds them both. Discord grabs some non meat food like mac and cheese, potato salad, soup, and other food, even a slice of chocolate cake. He walks back to the table with plates full of food. He could see the guy who bumped into him glare at him while he walks back. Lyra takes the plates and sets them on the table, and before Discord could even think about sitting down she stood, and wrapped her arms around his neck , pressing her lips to his. Discord eyes widen, before he wraps his arms around Lyra and relaxes. Lyra pulls away after the first three seconds and rests her head on his chest. "Thank you." She said. Discord smiles. "It's no problem. I also brought you chocolate cake." He said. "Awe, babe! I love chocolate cake!" She said. "I got it for you for our celebration." He said. "Awe, thanks, love!" Lyra said, hugging him tighter. "I love you so much!" She said. Discord hugs back. "I love you too." He said. "Now eat while I got get my food okay?" She said. She pecked Discord on the lips and walked off. He nods and sits. "Will do." He said as begins to eat his food. "Daddy...what if I said I don't wanna change back into a human?" Screwball asked. "Well... we a still have time before we leave for New York, so we can still think about it. But if you want to stay like this, then I can see what I can do. " Discord said. He lowers his voice. "Besides, I am starting to like using Discord's powers." He said. Screwball giggles. "You're funny, and that'd be great to stay this way. I don't know what I was getting so bummed over!" She said. "You were sad?" Dashie asked. "For a while, yeah." Screwball said. "Don't be sad big sis!" Dashie said, hugging Screwball. Screwball hugged back. "I'm not sad anymore Dashie, I'm actually very happy." She said. Discord smiles. "Aww, ain't that cute." He said. Lyra comes back with a plate which contained two chicken wings, potatoes, brussel sprouts and a bun. "I'm back!" She said. She sat down and took a huge bite from the first chicken wing. "Wait, I thought ponies can't eat meat. Oh, wait. We're still part human, so it should be fine." Discord said. "Ponies can eat meat. I saw it in a video this dude keeps spamming onto the comments on my stories on Fimfiction. He calls himself ChromeMasquerade." Lyra said. Discord's eyes widen. "Really, I did not know that." Discord said. Lyra shrugged her shoulders. "It's whateves. He does it to everybody, but like I just said, it's whateves." She said as she took another bite of her chicken wing. Discord finishes off the last of his food and sighs happily. "Ahhh, that was good." He said. "It was." Lyra said, nodding in agreement. Screwball had just finished her brownie. "Mmmm chocolaty!" She said. "It was good." Dashie said. "Now, let me pay the bill, then we will go, ok?" Discord said. "Nuu I wanna pay da bill!" Lyra said. "Bill Nye the since guy?" Screwball asked. Discord chuckles. "How about we both pay the bill, how does that sound?" He asked. "Okay!" Lyra said, paying half of the bill. Discord smiles and pays the other half. "Shall we get going?" She asked, holding her hand out to him. Discord nods and takes Lyra's hand. "Yep." He said. "Come on and hold mommy's hand you two!" Lyra said to Dashie and Screwball. They both held onto her hand. Discord stands up and looks at them. "Aww, that's cute." He said. Lyra leans on Discord and giggles. "Your fur is soft." She said. Discord smiles. "Thank you. Yours is too." He said. Lyra giggles again. "Thanks. Shall we go home? And...um I dunno if you'l be offended by this but can you stay like this? Mostly because I dont want people thinking you're Discord, also, I like you better this way...." She said. Discord nods. "Sure. And, it will be safer this way as well." He said. "Exactly my point!" She said. She kissed his cheek as they head out to the car. Discord smiles. As they reach the car, he opens the passenger side. "After you." He said. Lyra runs her tail under Discord's chin as she smiles back at him and climbs into the car. Screwball and Dashie get into the back seat next to each other. Discord gets in the driver side and starts the car. Lyra smiles and holds one of Discord's hands. "Thank you, Discord....for everything." She said. Discord nods. "It's no problem, Lyra." He said. Lyra hugs him. "I'm sorry if I'm really clingy, but I'm just so happy to be your special somepony!" She said happily. Discord laughs. "It's ok, Lyra. I don't mind." He said. Lyra closed her eyes, and decided not to let go. Discord warmly smiles and strokes her mane. Lyra sighs happily. "I've had a crush on you for three years." She said. "Wow. Now you can live that." He said. Lyra smiles and nods. "It's a dream come true to be with you." She said as she nuzzled his cheek. Discord slightly blushes. "Anything to keep you happy, Lyra." He said. "So...does this mean we sleep in the same bed?" She asked. "I guess it does." He said. "Yay!" Lyra said, giggling. Discord smiles and chuckles. "I really enjoyed our first kiss." Lyra said. "So did I." He said. "I'm so glad you love me." She said. Discord pulls the car up into the driveway. "Yep." He said. Lyra pulled him into another kiss as they drove up. Discord's face starts to blush as he kisses her back. Lyra holds him tighter than last time. Discord closes his eyes and relaxes. Lyra does the same, softly sucking his bottom lip, with her arms tight around him still. Discord pulls his arms around her and hugs as well. Lyra kissed for a few seconds more before pulling away and wipes her mouth. "Even better that time." She said, blushing. Discord was blushing as well. "Yea." He said. "Lets take the kids inside huh?" She asked. Discord nods. "Yea." He said. Lyra gets the kids out fo the car and takes them inside. Discord gets out and follows. "You two go play now, okay?" She asked. "Okay!" Dashie and Screwball said. They both ran off to Screwball's room. "Now what shall you and I do?" Lyra asked. "We'll be alone for a little bit, want to head to my... no, our room?" He asked. Lyra nods. Discord holds out his hand for Lyra. Lyra holds her arms out. "Cawwy me im just a hewpwess wittle fiwwy!" She whined. Discord smiles and carries Lyra to his room. Lyra holds onto his neck. "We gonna cuddle, honey?" She asked. Discord looks at Lyra and nods. "Yes we are." He said. Lyra jumps into the bed, crawling under the covers. Discord crawls in the bed after her. She snuggles close to him. Discord snuggles back and rubs her mane. "Am I a pretty mare, Discord?" She asked. Discord nods. "You are pretty." He said. Lyra blushes. "You're a handsome stallion!" She said. She nuzzles his chest. "I love you." She said. "I love you too, Lyra." He said. "Call the kids in here please, I wanna cuddle them too." She said. Discord nods. "Dashie! Screwball! Can you come in here please!" He yells. Both Dashie and Screwball came running in. "Yea, daddy?" They both said in unison. Lyra pats a spot on the bed between her and discord. "Come lay down with us." She said. They both jumped into the bed and Lyra held them close. Discord wiggles his fingers. "Whooooo, I'm a scary monster." He said. "Noooo not a scary monster!! I'll save you sis!" Dashie yelled. She bats at Discord's hands with her hooves. Discord grabs Dashie. "Raaaar, I got you!" He said. "Nuuuuu!" She yelled, lightly punching Discord's cheek. Lyra giggles. "You get him, Dashie!" Screwball said. Discord hugs Dashie. "I win." He said. Dashie giggles and hugs back. "I love ya too pops!" She said. "I love all of you." He said. "And we all love you too!" Lyra said. They all formed a group hug around Discord. "I'm sure your wife would be very happy." She said. Discord yawns. "I'm sure that she is." He said. Screwball yawns as well, and snuggles with Dashie. Dashie smiles and slowly falls asleep in Screwball's arms. "It's been a long day, Discord, we should get some sleep." Lyra said. Discord nods. "That sounds like a good idea." He said. Lyra pulls him and the girls close, using her magic to pull the blanket over them. "Good night everypony" She said. "Good night, Lyra." Discord said. He closes his eyes and slowly falls asleep. TO BE CONTINUED
