Family of Discord [OLD]

by Sonic Gamer


Ch.1 A Day In the Life of the Discord Family

Ever wonder how Akito came to be? Well, it dates back before Discord was set free from his stone prison.


Akito was walking out of the Ponyville town hall after signing up as a legal citizen of Equestria, since he was moving from his native country of Japan. “Whew, glad that’s over with,” he said. “I hope this country isn’t as messed up as Japan.” He then started to get a migraine. Tirek was using his magic all the way from Tartarus to use Akito as a puppet so he will be able to spy on all of Equestria.


“It worked,” Tirek said as he was controlling Akito’s body. “Now all I have to do is to make sure I don’t cause any suspicion.”


During Discord’s reign of chaos, the two princesses, Celestia and Luna, were about to meet up with Akito. But, little did they know what Tirek was doing to Akito. “Art thou sure about this, sister?” Luna asked.

“I don’t trust Discord’s riddle,” Celestia answered. “This could be our only way to find The Elements of Harmony.”

“If thou say so,” Luna replied.

Celestia then knocked on Akito’s chariot door. Akito answered the door, and said, “Hello, your highnesses. Come right in.” They, went into Akito’s chariot, and sat down to discuss the situation at hoof. “So, you want to find the Elements of Harmony, do you?” he asked. He then took out a contract, and a writing instrument. “All you have to do for me is give all of your alicorn magic to me.”

The princesses then became shocked. “Sister, this is madness!” Luna snapped.

“What choice do we have?” Celestia replied. “Discord must be stopped.”

“Isn't it raining chocolate milk outside?” Akito asked rhetorically.

“But, to give up our magic?” Luna argued.

“Well, if your magic is worth more to you than Equestria…” Akito started.

Luna then slammed on the table, and said, “Nothing is worth more to us than Equestria!"

“Okay then,” Akito replied. “Just sign it, and all of your problems will disappear.”

Celestia was about to sign the contract, until a royal guard barged in with some news. “Princess, the Elements of Harmony,” he started. “Twilight and her friends found them!”

Celestia then smiled, and said, “Oh, in that case…” She then rips the contract in half.

Akito became infuriated. “I was so close!” Tirek snapped.


Back in the present day, it was morning at the Castle of Chaos. The alarm clock woke up Discord and Fluttershy. “Good morning Discord,” Fluttershy said.

“Good morning to you, too” Discord replied as he gave Fluttershy a good morning kiss.

At the breakfast table, they and their son, Zany, were eating breakfast. Zany was playing with his food like the little colt he is.

“Zany, stop playing with your food,” Fluttershy told Zany.

“Okay, Mom,” Zany replied.

Later, Discord was taking out the trash, when all of a sudden, a tour chariot comes by. “There’s that lovable lug that taught us to judge someone by who they are rather than what they look like!” the tour pony said.

“Ugh, this again?” Discord said. “What does a draconequus have to do to get some privacy around here?”

Even later, Discord’s daughter, Screwball came over. “Hello, Daddy!” she said.

“Hello, Screwball.” Discord responded.

“I’m here to take Zany to school,” Screwball said.

Screwball’s husband, Mothball, then popped out from behind Screwball. “G’morning sir,” he said.

“Oh c’mon, Mothball,” Discord replied. “We’re in-laws now, call me ‘Dad’”

“OK… Dad,” Mothball hesitated to say.

Then late that night, the family had friends and other family members over for dinner.

“Then Fluttershy and Discord had a chaotic daughter,” Pinkie started. “Who eventually married a handsome changeling prince, and they lived…”

“...Happily…” Screwball continued for Pinkie.

“...Ever…” Fluttershy continued as well.

“...After!” Discord finished.

Everyone else then cheered.

After dinner, Fluttershy was washing the dishes. She then sees something from outside the window. “Look, a shooting star!” she pointed out as she put her hooves together, closed her eyes, smiled, then made a wish.

“So, what did you wish for?” Discord asked.

“That every day would be like this one,” Fluttershy answered.

“Oh, come here you.” Discord replied as he hugged Fluttershy, and gave her kiss.


And ironically, Fluttershy’s wish came true. The next morning, the alarm clock wakes them up, they have breakfast, Fluttershy tells Zany not to play with his food, Discord takes out the trash as the tour chariot comes by, Screwball comes over with Mothball to bring Zany to school, and at night, they had everyone over for dinner. “...and they lived…” Pinkie was saying.

“...happily…” continued Screwball.

“...ever…” Fluttershy continued.

“...after?” Discord finished, sounding unsure.

Then, everyone else cheered.


It became the everyday routine. Discord was getting sick of it, it was boring. Then, one last night.

“...happily…” Screwball continued for Pinkie.

“...ever…” Fluttershy continued.

“...after.” Discord finished, sounding bored.

When in bed, Discord stayed up thinking. He then walked to a mirror, when suddenly…

“It’s been awhile since we last talked.” Discord’s reflection told him.

“Ugh, what do you want?” Discord asked.

“It seems that you’re not really enjoying your new life so much.” his reflection replied.

“Sure, the everyday routine is a bit boring, but overall it’s a pretty good life.” Discord said.

“Are you sure?” the reflection asked. “Because everypony doesn’t seem to take you seriously anymore.”

“What are you talking about?” Discord asked.

“Ever since you married that wimpy pegasus, you’ve seem to have lost your touch.” the reflection answered.

“You shut your mouth,” Discord snapped quietly, trying not to wake up Fluttershy. “I love my wife, and my family, and I’m still the spirit of chaos.”

“Hm, denial,” the reflection replied. “The first stage of grief. Soon, you’ll head straight to anger.” And then, the reflection went back to being non sentient.


One day, Discord and his family went to Sugarcube Corner to celebrate Zany’s cutie party, for recently, Zany got his cutie mark. By the time they got there, they met up with Screwball and Mothball. “So glad you can make it, Screwball,” Discord said.

“Did you actually think I was gonna my little bro’s special day?” Screwball replied with a smile. She then looked at her brother, saying, “Congrats, Zany!”

As everyone else went inside, a bunch of fan ponies ran up to Discord. “It’s actually him!” one of them said excitedly. “Could you sign our Discord posters?” He took out his Discord poster.

“And our Discord lamps?” another one said taking out his Discord lamp.

“Oh man, you use to be so fierce!”

“Yeah, when you were still the spirit of chaos!”

Discord became confused from what that fan just said. “Still the spirit of chaos?”


Inside Sugarcube Corner, music was playing, and everyone was dancing, well everyone but Discord. “C’mon Discord, it’s a party. Dance!” Pinkie Pie said to Discord.

“No thanks,” Discord replied.

“Aw, don’t be a party pooper, Discord!” Pinkie said.

“I’m just don’t feel like dancing right now,” Discord replied.

Then, an energetic filly ran up to Discord, “Excuse me, Mr. Discord,” she said to him. “Can you do one of your draconequus roars for me? I’m such a huge fan of yours.”

“Sorry, but I’d rather not, “ Discord answered. “It’s my son’s Cutie Party, and…”

“Please………….?” the filly begged, interrupting Discord.

Fluttershy then walked up to Discord. “Discord, you mind getting the cake?” Fluttershy asked.

“Right away, dear,” Discord replied.

“And don’t forget the candles!” Fluttershy called back.

Discord walked up to the ordering counter to get the cake.

“Here’s the cake you ordered, Discord,” Mrs. Cake said handing over the cake. The cake had vanilla icing, and a picture of Zany’s cutie mark on it.

“It’s perfect,” Discord said to Mrs. Cake. He then gave Mrs. Cake a gem. “Keep the change.”

It was then when that filly came back. “Since you’re not doing anything,” she started, “Can you roar for me please?”

“Perhaps you don’t understand, kid,” Discord answered. “I only roar when I’m angry. You don’t wanna see me angry, do you?”

“Just DO IT!” the filly replied, referencing the popular meme.

Discord just walked away slowly. “Just keep it together, just keep it together,” he mumbled to himself.

“Hey, don’t walk away from me!” the filly called out to Discord. “I... want… a… roar!”

Discord returned to his family’s table with the cake. “Here it is,” he said to them.

“Good,” Fluttershy replied, “But, where are the candles?”

Discord noticed that he forgot the candles. “Ugh, that damn brat made me forget,” he said, referring to the filly.

“Not to worry,” Fluttershy insured Discord, “I’ll go get them. You mind watching the cake?”

“You can count on me,” Discord said as Fluttershy left to get the candles. But, when Discord faced the cake, it was already gone. Discord became shocked. “W-where’s the cake!?”

“We ate the cake,” Cherry Pie admitted with regret.

“Yeah,” Blueberry Pie said, regretting what she and her sisters did.

“Sorry,” Raspberry Pie apologized.

“Are you serious!?” Zany said, angrily. “What the buck is your girls’ problem!?”

“Zany, watch your language!” Discord scolded Zany.

Then, that annoying filly came back. “Excuse me,” she said to Discord, “I believe you still owe me a roar.”

Discord then did a fake roar for the filly.

“C’mon, I want a real roar!” the filly complained.

“Pinkie, we need another cake,” Discord said to Pinkie.

“Actually, we ate the other cakes,” Cherry admitted, looking down.

“Oh dear Celestia!” Discord responded. “Are there any cupcakes?”

“Ate them, too,” Cherry answered.

“Oh, they have ice cream!” Blueberry said.

“Oh, but I it all!” Raspberry replied.

“You didn’t share?” Blueberry replied back.

There was so much commotion going on at that party, especially with that annoying filly who keeps begging Discord to roar for her. It was at this moment where Discord reached his limit. He released an angry roar that was loud as a lion’s roar. After he let out that roar, everyone cheered from how amazing his roar was. They even chanted for him.

“That was… AMAZING!” the filly said.

“Look at what I found,” Pinkie said, as she presented another cake. “Boy, talk about spare cake ex-machina!”

Discord looked at the cake with a furious look on his face.

“Discord, are you OK?” Fluttershy asked.

Out of anger, Discord used his magic to make the cake explode. After he did so, everypony gasped from what they saw. Discord then walked out of Sugarcube Corner, and Fluttershy followed him.

“Sweet Celestia!” Mothball responded, “What’s got into him?”

“Well, his his life was getting kinda rough,” Screwball answered.


Outside of Sugarcube Corner, Akito could be seen playing a Joy Boy. “Oh, c’mon!” he said, “I had one more Metroid to kill, and then you decide to give more to kill? Don’t you have any idea how long it took me to…” He then stopped after he heard Discord walk out of Sugarcube Corner, he then hid in the bushes.

Fluttershy came out from behind Discord. “Unbelievable!” she said to him.

“Tell me about it!” Discord replied, “Those other ponies were so…!”

“I’m not talking about them, Discord,” Fluttershy interrupted, “I’m talking about you. Is this really how you want to remember our son’s Cutie Party?”

“Oh great,” Discord said sarcastically, “So this is all my fault?”

“Well, uh…” Fluttershy hesitated, “How about we talk about it after the party, at home.”

“You mean that roadside attraction we live in?” Discord insisted. He then used his magic to dress up like a circus barker. “Come right up everypony, see the dancing draconequus! Don’t worry, he won’t bite!” He then reverted back to his previous appearance. “I used to be the spirit of chaos, now I’m just a big, chaotic joke!”

“OK, maybe you aren’t the same guy you used to be,” Fluttershy said, “But, maybe that isn’t such a bad thing.”

“Y’know, I think I actually liked it better if everything was back to the way they used to be!” Discord insisted, “Back when everypony was scared of me! Back when everypony judged me by my looks!”

“You mean before you accepted me as your bride?” Fluttershy asked.

“Exactly!” Discord answered.

Fluttershy was shocked from what she heard, and she looked like she was gonna cry.

“Oh Fluttershy, don’t take it the wrong way,” Discord said, hugging Fluttershy, “I still love you and all, but…” he hesitated for a few seconds. He then let out a sigh. “I need some time to myself.” He then walked away, and Fluttershy went back inside.

Akito was eavesdropping on their conversation, he then made an evil smile, the same as Lord Tirek from Tartarus, for he had an idea, an awful idea. Lord Tirek had a wonderful, awful idea.
