//------------------------------// // Snow White // Story: Disney Princesses in Equestria // by silvadel //------------------------------// Fluttershy rolled over as she felt Celestia's sun beating down on her face. She yawned and stretched, then got out of bed. The sound of her hooves on the wooden floor creaked ominously throughout the cottage. She perked up her ears, but couldn't hear a single one of her birds. She glanced about but saw not a single one of her animal friends in her bedroom. Afraid for her animals she swooped down the stairs and started a frantic search of her cottage. The door flung open as she galloped toward the chicken coop. It was empty as well. Fluttershy started to cry. Discord appeared before her, and stifled a bit of anger before saying, "What's wrong my dear?" "My animals," sniffed Fluttershy. "They're all gone." Discord scouted about, and picked up a few tracks quite literally from off the ground. "Don't worry," said Discord, "I'll find your brood before you know it." With that he headed off into the Everfree Forest. It wasn't long before he started to hear distant singing. He emerged into a clearing to see a bipedal creature in a blue and white dress completely surrounded by animals. They were giving her the same kind of far away, happy looks that they would give Fluttershy, as they listened to her song. Discord pushed up his chest and strode up to the girl. "What manner of creature are you," asked the girl. "The better question is what are you doing with my friend's animals?" asked Discord. "If you haven't noticed this forest is quite dangerous for them." "Oh, I was just feeling down, and a little bit scared, so I started to sing," said the girl. "And all of these lovely animals came by to help cheer me up." She fondled a nearby deer. "Well, they aren't your animals," said Discord, snapping his claw which caused the deer to teleport behind him. "I dare say that they don't seem to be your animals either," said the girl, as the deer ran back to her for protection. Discord glared at the girl, then seemed to look through her. He clapped his claw and paw together and grinned before adopting a more stern visage. "I suppose Fluttershy would get mad at me.." mumbled Discord before ripping a hole in reality. He flicked one of his claws up and in the direction of the portal and the girl fell backwards through it. "Arrivederci," he said as she vanished from view.
